Beautiful Zion, built above, Beautiful city that I love; Beautiful gates of pearly white, Beautiful temple–God its light; He who was slain on Calvary Opens those pearly gates to me." Zion, Zion, lovely Zion! Beautiful Zion, city of our God! 1-3 Words by George Gill / Music by Thomas J. Cook
Beautiful heav’n, where all is light, Beautiful Zion Built Above Beautiful heav’n, where all is light, Beautiful angels, clothed in white; Beautiful strains that never tire, Beautiful harps thro’ all the choir; There shall I join the chorus sweet, Worshipping at the Savior’s feet. Zion, Zion, lovely Zion! Beautiful Zion, city of our God! 2-3
Beautiful throne for Christ our King, Beautiful songs the angels sing; Beautiful Zion Built Above Beautiful throne for Christ our King, Beautiful songs the angels sing; Beautiful rest all wand’rings cease, Beautiful home of perfect peace; There shall my eyes the Savior see: Haste to this heav’nly home with me." Zion, Zion, lovely Zion! Beautiful Zion, city of our God! 3-3
